Today we explored the five elements of Acupuncture and their reference to the body and the mind. A patient suffering with stress that was associated with obsessive/addictive tendencies was given specific relaxation techniques alongside with the Osteopathic treatment, which help to release overall pressure in the body. Exercises were given to  mobilise the ‘chi’ (energy) through the channels, to release emotional blockages. Acupuncture was given to calm the mind and clear the psychosomatic muscular blockages.

Osteopathy Acupuncture Clinic | Cyprus | Paphos | Limassol | The focus of treatment today was based upon exploring the mechanisms of manipulation of the cervical spine on two patients with a history of anxiety. The aim of treatment was to improve their resting state i.e. the qualitative state of how far the patient can relax, so that the Osteopathic manipulation occurs by itself. Osteopathic manipulation was carried out effortlessly with the patients head on the pillow i.e. no further flexion or extension was required for the Osteopathic realignment.
